Regent Thai Restaurant

Small Thai restaurant on the corner of Church and 29 street in San Francisco, we sat on the far corner of the place and order our food. We shared an order the Ton Yum Goong (spicy and sour shrimp with mushrooms, tomato and lemon grass), followed by Gai Him Ma Parn ( sliced chicken with pepper, onions, cashews and crispy chili), and the Pla Dook Tod Gro (catfish filet with egg plant, zucchinis, basil and house tamarind chili sauce) and Steam Jasmine Rice, you have to choose the level of spicy of heat from mild, medium or Thai Spicy, the food was served after waiting a few minutes and was cooked with the Thai flavor and creative presentation. The only thing that was not of our liking is the we felt rushed by the staff.

I've passed this place numerous times without batting an eye, so after our kids doctor appointment, we decided to grab lunch here out of convenience... I wish we'd had gone sooner! The food was awesome! I ordered the Pad Thai with Duck and it was out of this world!!! All of the ingredients were fresh and quite honestly made it the best pad Thai I've had in the City. We also ordered the Golden Bags and Shrimp Chips, which was spectacular too. The quality of food was on point! The service was awesome as well! There was one waitress (as we were there for lunch), but she was attentive and friendly, even bringing kids plates to the table. We are definitely going back!!!

Update 01/21/23 We came on the Chinese New Year’s Eve…food’s still amazing and the service staff are always attentive. Reviewed 3 years ago. The food has always been good..they portioned the dish sizes well to match the price (not expensive). So, we always order 3-4 dishes to try different things for 3 people. My favorite dish is the tofu churro!!
